  • Any ideas on finding history of a Winston Cup car?

    I bought this car way cheap, plan on building it for ECTA events. It was last run in ARCA. Pretty sure it was a Winston Cup car first (most cars in the series are). Any idea's on I D ing it? Was told it should have number engraved on the passanger side roll bar it's not there. Ther car is front steer and has the dry sump tank on the passanger side so it seems from what I have read that it was built in the early 90's. The only I D on the car is a small sticker on the rol cage ware only the driver could see with the name SYBIL

          looking for used parts try Muscle Motorsports online or their epay store. I had bought many items from Muscle, always shot me straight, these guys can help you price out complete parts items you need to put a car together.

          call the race teams and ask about certain name cars, seems like Rusty Wallace drove a car named that, I am probably wrong though.

            I'm not sure I'd want to drive a race car named Sybil. The poster child of Multiple Personality Syndrome.

              I thought the same thing, may call Bob Strait I think he drove it in ARCA looked him up online he has a body shop in IL. Has in memory of Neil Bonnet sticker on it witch I think would be 1994.

                    I have a brain fart going here but KT has a friend in NC who deals in used NASCAR stuff. I'm sure if you PM Keith he can fix you up with contact info. Maybe it's Muscle Motorsports? Also, they might be able to give you direction on finding the source of the car.

                        I would call Robert Yater and see whose cars they ran in the late 80's early 90's but it looks similar to a Laughlin busch car a friend had. Do you have a set of the five hole wheels like you have on the left front or just that one. I'd love a set for my Monte Carlo.

                            Good thought does look like the chassis was always red (sanded on a spot ware the I d numbers should be) and not as sure on the outside always being black (kinda looks, like it may have been red. Those are only wheels I have but roush has 15x10 cup car wheels as low as $30 each. Only 3 of my wheels are the five hole style and I want to switch to the other style.

                              Well it looks like my search may go no ware, talked to Gene Felton (who is way nice) and he told me to look on cross bar, spring perches and behind drivers seat for I D struck out in all places. I Called Mucsle Motors whom sent me to Bill Ryan whom will call back, But what I found out that was was Target Expediting #37 Thunderbird (I am sure there was more than 1 car but this apears to be a super speedway car) was run in 93 and 94. In 93 at Daytona it was driven by Chargin Charlie Glotzback after that by Bob Strait. Being that that team ran Cutless's before that the car either rebodied as a T bird for 93, bought from another ARCA team as T bird or could have been one of the many Tbirds that kicked ass in 92.
